However, I could properly apply the patch using 'git > am' from an email and get the git log right. Yes, but is there really a commit there? That's what messed me up last time, git applied it, but with no actual diff (which is probably a bug too, just a different one...) And if you edited it by hand, that might explain the issue, what did the "original" patch look like? > I'll try with a newer version of git as you suggest. > Any other check I could do before the submission?

Odds are you got something wrong when editing the patch by hand. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
